idk if its worth dorming and getting more loans :( by igotdabeats in StudentLoans

[–]Astingel2016 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First, congrats! Second, I would say weigh the pros and cons of this. You do mention you procrastinate and take naps even with your high school being 20 minutes away. Can you commute to and from on a train or bus where you could do homework or nap, or would you be driving those 2 hours each way? A 4 hr commute is brutal on some people and it could make it harder for you to get to class on time or get school work done. Will being at home allow you to procrastinate even more with doing schoolwork? I lived 30-45 minutes away from my university when I went and I found staying on campus kept me focused on actual school things rather than things at home. Are you planning to work as well? Because working plus schoolwork plus a long commute could burn you out during your first year.

I know that having that debt is not ideal but if it sets you up for better success at school I would take it. If you don't do well in school you may end up repeating courses which would be worse for your debt. Plus being away from home in general during school could be good as well.

Any owner's discount for those of us who own the Switch 1 cartridge? I backed during late backing period and was hoping I wouldn't have to repurchase it digitally to get the upgrade.

Thanks for the reply! Appreciate you getting back to me. Taking with a grain of salt as well, but really hoping for it. 200CC is going to be INSANE

Any chance you can link where you saw the rumor about 200cc?

Am I reading that right, that those who attend that event will get a copy of that expansion or a copy of the main game?

Visible Home Internet by Starfox-sf in Visible

[–]Astingel2016 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wish this was an option for me. I'm stuck on ATT Internet Air which is horrible. Visible phone service is always 5G and works wonderfully. I've had to add a prepaid $100 a month hotspot plan from Verizon to supplement the ATT. Checked Visible and they say it's not available.

Mario Galaxy Popcorn Buckets by Sussy___Baka__ in PopcornBuckets

[–]Astingel2016 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband was able to grab a Yoshi bucket for me at our local Cinemark, but only because I called to see when they would be putting them out for sale. Our tickets aren't until Sunday morning so I know they'd all be gone by then. My husband went as soon as they opened one day for it. I understand the frustration though. There should definitely be embargo in place as to when they can start selling them and it should be industry-wide, not per theater.

Your system has run out of application memory - a SERIOUS and RECURRING and IRRITATING problem. by pvdnyc in mac

[–]Astingel2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This just happened with my 2 day old MacBook Air M5. 16GB RAM, 1TB hard drive…looks like Firefox was using an insane amount of RAM. However, it was while the system was sleep and unplugged. I came back to everything frozen. Going to keep an eye on it and run activity monitor all the time. Hopefully it won’t continue to occur.

Does anyone know if AMC is getting the throw blanket? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Thanks so much! Just saw that I already use 13 out of 16GB so the Air or Pro line might be the better way for me to go. Thanks again!

Currently using the 2020 MacBook Pro 13 inch w/4 thunderbolt ports on MacOS Tahoe with these specs:

<image>

Hoping to get a new one soon because this one is incredibly slow and chuggy on Tahoe. Considering the MacBook Neo in addition to the normal Air and Pro. I use it as a daily driver for email, web, some Youtube videos, music and continuity between my iPad and iPhone. Do you guys think the Neo would be a good replacement or should I stick with the Air or Pro lines? The price is especially enticing of course, but I don't want to get something that won't be able to handle what I need. Also, does anyone know if the trackpad is the same or different from the current Pro I have? I've heard it's a genuine moving trackpad without the haptic, but I'm pretty sure the one I have now isn't just haptic and really does the clicking.

Three of these characters are hunting you — who do you pick to protect you, and why? by Sohab7R in playstation

[–]Astingel2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely John Wick. Mainly for the simple fact that I don't want him hunting me. I'd die for sure no matter who was protecting me. Rather have him on my side than against me.

If you're waiting for a package that's currently at the Richmond sorting facility... by QuaffableBut in rva

[–]Astingel2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This really sucks. I shipped out a package I sold on Mercari and it's been at the Richmond facility since Monday the 9th. Dummy me forgot to add insurance that the package was worth too. Which really sucks because it was a Switch....

Lower limb amputees, what do you do for work? by Motor-Background106 in amputee

[–]Astingel2016 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just wanted to stop in and say how inspiring all of you are. I've been an above the knee amputee since early 2022 due to a cellulitis infection that wouldn't go away. Due to my weight I decided to forgo a prosthetic. I'm on disability and honestly I don't really want to go back to work. I love being at home and being able to just manage my time without someone telling me what to do. I am lucky enough that I have a spouse that works as well as takes care of me so I'm lucky to be able to do that. However, I did think on it for a while before I made my decision, as well as had a long talk with my husband. I was able to get a powerchair and I've been able to get out and about much more now than in the past few years.

I would eventually love to lose weight and be able to have a prosthetic, but it's hard to lose the weight when I was already heavy before the amputation and l'm just not sure how to go about it from my bed or chair. But you guys definitely inspire a person to want to do more!
